Wabbajack-loving Skyrim players will know that there's nothing worse than a Wabbajack you can't equip, which is why it's vital that Skyrim players log into Steam immediately to download the full release of patch 1.4. It fixes a 'rare issue' in 'The Mind of Madness' that would leave players burdened with a Wabbajack that they'd be unable to wield. A fate worse than death.

Now we've won search ranking for the Word 'Wabbajack,' we can move on to the full list of patch notes, which will be familiar to those who road tested the beta version. The patch will apply automatically through Steam, and adds some behind the scenes support for the incoming Skyrim Workshop. According to yesterday's Skyrim Creation Kit trailer, that'll be arriving soon.
